Watch: Tito Ortiz and Chael Sonnen Have Intense First Stare Down

It's only been a few weeks since #Bellator announced they'd kick off 2017 with a blockbuster fight between former UFC light heavyweight champion Tito Ortiz and newly signed UFC vet Chael Sonnen and we already have our first intense stare down.

The pair attended a pre-fight press conference where the words exchanged were heated to say the least, followed by an even more uncomfortable face off.

Separated only by Bellator President Scott Coker, Sonnen and Ortiz spewed insults at each other fitting for a high school blacktop squabble.
